The Sweet Stuff in American Art is a group show in 2007 that took place at the Hudson River Museum. The exhibition focused on sweets reflected through the eyes of 42 contemporary artists from around the nation, the city of Yonkers, where the museum is located, has long had an association with sugar, one of the leading industries in Yonkers. The show was sponsored by Domino Sugar.
"Today, the sugar industry remains in Yonkers, a reminder of the past and also a harbinger of the city's vibrant future. It is fascinating to think that sugar, so uniform in its production, could be the basis for such a varied artistic response in the group of excellent artists assembled here."
Michael Botwinick, Director, Hudson River Museum

Multiple Vantage Points catalogue is a group show for Southern Californian women artists from 1980-2006. The show took place at the Los Angeles Municipal Art Gallery in Barnsdall Park and exhibited from February 25-April 15, 2007.
It was curated by Dextra Frankel.
It was sponsored by Southern California Women's Caucus for Art & Southern California Council of the National Museum of Women in the Arts.
"Multiple Vantage Points investigates the critical role women artists play in redefining the national dialogue on feminist issues. The period of 1980 and the present is particularly important as it marks the time when women "baby boomers" began to exercise their political and economic power. They were charged with putting into practice the gains and social imperatives that were established by earlier feminist movements. It was left to the artists, many of whom are in this exhibition, to articulate through their work the nuances of societal change and different, often alternative, perspectives on politics, sexuality, and spirituality. Ironically, the artwork produced by women during this period has profoundly influenced the work produced by men in that "masculine/feminine sides" through subject matter, technique, and process, as only a few had prior to this time."
